- - - TEAM SCOPE - - MARIAN: An up and down first half has the Sabres in an interesting position. With their sweep of
Finlandia, they have put themselves in a position to earn a spot in the Slaats Cup Playoffs, but the
team has shown promise at times eluding to the possibility of earning the fourth or fifth seed in the
tournament. Offensive production will need to continue to improve as the Sabres are averaging
only 2.55 goals a game, compared to the 2.91 goals they are allowing on average.
ST. SCHOLASTICA: With a lock on three of the top four spots in the scoring race, the Saints have
taken the Division III world by storm. Their high-potent offense is matched by a stout defense, that
is averaging only 2.00 goals allowed per game, resulting in a +3.27 goal differential. Just before
the holiday break, the Saints split their weekend series with Adrian, winning on Friday 7-3 before
falling on Saturday 3-2.
